Maggie Antone made her Grand Ole Opry debut last Friday (Dec. 13).

Wearing her great grandmother’s fur stole, her grandmother’s ring and her mother’s earrings, the singer-songwriter and producer paid homage to her family and celebrated those who’ve helped her get to where she is today during the milestone moment. Antone also paired her favorite red boots from Boot Barn with a dress she purchased three years ago in her hometown of Richmond, Virginia in hopes of wearing it to the Opry one day.

The special performance closed out a big year for the artist, who released her debut album, Rhinestoned, via her own label, Love Big, in partnership with Thirty Tigers; toured with 49 Winchester, Ella Langley, Trampled by Turtles and Kat Hasty; booked gigs with Brent Cobb, Ian Munsick, Marty Stuart and The Red Clay Strays; and made appearances at festivals, including Bonnaroo, Bourbon & Beyond and Born & Raised, over the course of 2024.

Additionally, Antone will kick off her first-ever headline tour in early 2025 with support from Eli Winders, Molly Forbes and Kinsley.
